01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
When you want the deep flavor of beef rather than heavy fat, Gyukaido in Shin-Koiwa makes a compelling destination. Specializing in Hokkaido Shiretoko beef, the restaurant offers loin, skirt steak, and rare cuts that balance fine marbling with firm, flavorful meat. From tender jo-harami and fine-grained zabuton to shin-shin with its pronounced lean character, guests can grill their preferred cuts over the mesh and season them simply with tare sauce or lemon.
Tongue, Offal, and Rice Pairings
Beef tongue comes with a satisfying chew and deep savoriness, served in thick cuts or on assorted platters. Offal selections range from shimacho intestines and honeycomb tripe to cleanly trimmed liver, offering contrasting textures and rich fat sweetness. Grilling these cuts to layer over steamed white rice is a natural pleasure, while cold naengmyeon noodles, gomtang soup with rice, or sizzling stone-pot bibimbap offer a hearty finish.
From Lunch Sets to Solo Dining and Group Gatherings
At lunchtime, sets featuring karubi rib, tongue, and loin share the menu with the customizable Shiretoko Yakiniku Set and horumon soup ramen made with house-broth. The interior provides both counter and table seating, accommodating casual solo meals at the grill as easily as family gatherings and evening courses built around shared meat platters.
